【Product Story】

—Wonderful whisky from a distillery that is one of speysides best kept secrets.— Built in 1898 Caperdonich was originally known as Glen Grant no.2 with the spirit being used to support its more well-known namesake nearby. Whilst having the same equipment and water source it produced a different spirit, closed after only a few years in 1902 the distillery remained silent for the next six decades before being brought back to life. With the installation of new distilling technology and renamed Caperdonich the distillery moved forward. Sadly the site was closed for good in 2002 with the last building being removed in 2011, much of the distilling equipment is now fitted into other distilleries so the legacy of Caperdonich lives on. A distillery that was one of Speyside’s best kept secrets hidden away from the public eye in the village of Rothes. Built to support its more famous neighbor at Glen Grant, Caperdonich went on to produce its own unique spirit. Caperdonich was also well known for the “Whisky Pipe” that was used to transfer spirit from the distillery across the road to Glen Grant. The pipe went over the houses and the main road in Rothes before entering the cask filling store at Glen Grant. Caperdonich lives on in the exceptionally rare bottlings, a distillery still fondly remembered by many of the people who worked there
